7 - Partition Setup

When you create a new partition, you need to make a few choices.

Will this be a primary or an extended partition? You can only have 4 primary partitions, so if you already have 3 partitions as is the case with many pre-built systems, then your choices are limited. If you are choosing the bigram option as in the previous help entry, then a primary partition will suffice, but if you want 2 or more, then you'll have to make an extended partition.
